Mentis Board Game

Mentis is a breath of fresh air for classical abstract game players, deep, challenging, and with a touch of deviousness. The game is played by two players on a 7x7 board, with each players’ tiles lining up to face each other from opposite sides. However, the tiles start in the players’ hands, not on the board, so how they are deployed is part of the opening strategy and beyond. The aim is to capture the opponents King. Your King is a fragile piece, unable to move from his hill on your side of the board, sending out his forces of Spears, Trenchmen and Nobles to fight and defend across the board. The ruleset is quick to learn. How those rules are unleashed is down to your strategy. Please send any feedback, questions, playtest results to the BoardGameGeek thread.

What makes Mentis unique is its combination of mechanics :-

• Abstract Strategy Game with quick play and Rules which are quick and easy to learn.
• Rock-paper-scissors style attacking and blocking
• More than one piece can occupy the same square
• Secret deployment of pieces from hand, rather than initial starting positions on the board
• Attacking pieces do not move
